Trinco Blu by Cinnamon

Titus Thayalanesan

I recently visited the dinner buffet at Trinco Blu by Cinnamon, and it turned out to be a delightful experience. From the moment we entered the dining area, the ambience was both elegant and relaxed—soft lighting, comfortable seating and a pleasant seaside view added to the charm. The spread offered a wide variety of dishes, from local Sri Lankan specialties to continental favourites, so there was something for everyone. Many guests have noted this variety and quality in their reviews. The food was fresh, well-presented, and replenished promptly. I especially enjoyed the live cooking station where chefs prepared dishes on the spot—it added an interactive touch to the evening. The service team were friendly, attentive and kept everything running smoothly, which made the dining experience more enjoyable. As one reviewer said, “Dinner buffet was pretty good”. Value for money is another plus: for what’s offered, the buffet felt like a worthy investment. My only suggestion would be to maybe expect slightly longer wait times for the more popular items during peak hours. All in all, I’d highly recommend the dinner buffet at Trinco Blu by Cinnamon for anyone in Trincomalee looking for a quality, relaxed evening meal. I’ll definitely be coming back.

We had such a wonderful stay at Trinco Blu by Cinnamon. The resort has this beautiful modern coastal charm, open spaces, and stunning views of the sea that make every breakfast feel like a postcard moment. We were served mainly by Roshan, Samif, and Jeyan and other staff during breakfast and dinner and they were all exceptional - so kind, professional, and genuinely warm in their service. They made every request feel personal and special. The food was excellent, with an amazing breakfast spread - fresh tropical fruit, Sri Lankan favourites, and one of the best iced coffee I’ve had in SL! Dinner was just as good, served with care and always perfectly timed.

Very nice setting, with excellent ocean views and some rooms opening towards the beach. There's a beautiful pool too. The grounds are kept very clean and service very efficient. The staff are friendly and very courteous. We had some issues with the bathroom and AC on arrival, but these were dealt with promptly and efficiently. While there was a lot of variety at meal times, we did find that the food was overcooked to some extent, particularly the non vegetarian dishes.

Our stay at Trinco Blu by Cinnamon was nothing short of amazing. Out of all the Cinnamon hotels we’ve visited, this one truly stands out for its exceptional service, comfort, and stunning location. The food was absolutely delicious – from the buffet to à la carte options, everything was fresh and full of flavor. The variety was impressive, catering to every taste. What really made the experience special was the staff. Every single person we encountered was genuinely warm, polite, and always willing to help. Their hospitality made us feel completely at home. The location is perfect – right on the beach, offering breathtaking sunrises and sunsets. The ambiance is calm and peaceful, ideal for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy Trincomalee’s beauty. The rooms are small bit. Overall, Trinco Blu by Cinnamon exceeded our expectations in every way. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting the East Coast – truly a gem and one of the best experiences we’ve had with the Cinnamon chain. 🌊💙

We had such a lovely time, wish we stayed longer. We had the cooking class too and was a great experience, the crab was so fresh and glad we were able to learn the process. Rooms are comfortable and spacious, we had direct access to the beach and pool. Breakfast was good with several options, there was even the omelette station, which was great. Dinner was good too.
